Default Will Polaris answer BRP's new Sport 4x4??

Well everyone has been looking for Polaris to update the Scrambler for a few years now, but to no avail. Now that BRP just came out with there sport 4x4 called the Renagade 800 it might put a fire under Polaris butt. But considering this 800 is only 26lbs heavier then the Scrambler but has IRS and Holeshot ATR tires with that huge V-Twin 800, it just might be the one to get. Here are the specs.Renagade 800

Wow! Looks like trouble. I am hopeful that Polaris will have an answer to this but I doubt it. Thanks for sharing.

I dont care for the looks but you still have to respect BRP for bringing that to the market.
this one really raises the bar. I just wish they would have kept the style of the DS650.

WHAT WOULD BE COOL WOULD BE TO MODIFY THE THE EXISTING OUTLAW CHASIS FOR A 4X4 SETUP AND EITHER CALL IT A SCRAMBLER OR OUTLAW 4X4. WITH THE ADDED WEIGHT OF THE 4X4 AND CHASIS STIFFNING, IT STILL SHOULD COME IN UNDER 600 LBS.POLARIS PLEASE LISTEN.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

i'm intrigued to say the least...

Polaris: your answer needs to be an Outlaw with 4x4. Maybe make it an Auto-clutch but stick with the 5-speed, DOHC motor. If you do this, you will have a 500 which can laugh at the new Can-Am 800, an think of the sales you'll see because of that!!!

However, until then, i'm very much interested in seeing one of those things in copetition in the GNCC circuit... Mike Penland will be thrilled i'm sure. Nice engineering Can-Am!

*P.S. LOVE TO SEE THE OLD NAME COME BACK!!!

I just went to the Can-Am website. I bet the hard core BRP guys are messing themselves. I am kinda' glad I didn't get one now. They are a hell of a machine but I would be worried about what direction the company will be going in. The new 800 Limited looks pretty sharp too.

Polaris will NOT answer the call. I have 2 Polaris and both are great, but all there going to do to the scrammy is update like they do each year the graphics. I called my BRP dealer to ask the price and he hadnt even heard of the renagade yet. I bet its going to be high $$$$$

Well the Renagade won't be out until Nov-Dec, so we will all have to wait.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
